Timely, the non-raining time ended as if knowing proper times, rain timely filled up the tanks and cooled down the air.

Chanroth might have been busy the last days in prepearing dwellings and others for the guests he will receive, also wedding-fests and Kathina-celebration in the north monastery might have taken their times.

Timely finished the water-tank at Kuti 2, some 200l are now stored for the dwellers.

Now it's probably good to spend the day in cleaning and preparing the Kuti and other dwellings for the Venerables to come as the rains stopped.

The Kathina at the north monastery was signed by rain and the street nearly impossible to use, Chanroth, who just came up, after some visitors, told.

As it is custom here, when ever people who have certain good intentions cross the bridge, the weather quickly changes, sun and comfortable air will appear. So it was that Nyom Keomony , with some friends from Thailand and Malaysia, althought in hurry, gave a short visit to come in touch, pay respect, and sacrificed some time to listen to the Dhamma, first thinking that they have not sacrificed, given anything, coming with nothing but certain delight.

As they went back, Chanroth came up, told about all the business this day and that he now needs to go to the 7-days death anniversary of Ta Plauks son, that the group of Kuti-builder will come one day later, on 21th, and then returned back, planing to come up tomorrow.

"Who ever believes, understands or had seen that eye and form, ear and sound, nose... intellect and thought are not real, not lasting, not worthy to sacrifice much into it, to fall for it, is incapable of grave wrong deeds and no more headed toward fall, upward, an animal, hungry ghost or hellish existence, certain secured to be headed toward release."

Nyom Chanroth came up in the morning, having organized wheels. "I don't desire for children, knowing the Dhamma...", he once told. Today he had an attendant, about 9 years, who said: "Pa(pa), you can stop call me "dear younger" (Oun). Call me child (Gon), ok!?"... His wife children, or grandchildren, who troubled with his parents, was send to them into the mountains. "Look. You didn't like to have children. That's how it goes..."An ever-talking and asking young man who is really a challenge for patient.

The robe-way works so far, after 2h to entangle the robe, carrying 30 kg works fine, althought not perfect since the carry robe is a plastic robe and impossible to stretch proper and lasting, and Nyom is back into the village to better prepear the gondola wheel.

That's only for two people, the strongest, and only 1/3 of the way up. So there is still enough for slow walking and Satipaṭṭhāna, one step, in, one step, out. Don't look right, left, up, just 2m to the gound at the front. In breath, one step, out breath left, lift right, lift left, touch left, touch right... vedana, tanha, uppadana... decay... and the hill will be nothing to the Jhana that can be reached, only less are able to climb... don't think one is not able to "fly", and even get insight into the four noble truth.

Many great occacsions of goodness had been met on the way which made the arrive possible day by day. Maybe later more.

On the way Atma met a young Bhikkhu who desired to change usual ways and come to dwell a while at the Ashram. If Bhante, to approach here direct, Khemakumara has time, and mood and possible also inform Nyom Chanroth, it would be good when the Kuti would be compleded inside (Verputzt und Fliesen), so that he would have a good place to dwell. The Ven. Sad he would come on Newmoon (1week later from now) . May person is not sure if he will be back till then or some days later.

Upasika ? (Atma forgot the name), asked respectfully to build a small Sala on the south food of the Ashrams hill to have a small place where Lay people could dwell a certain time, offer food, listen to teachings and to have a place to store secondary things to keep the Kutis free from all this stuff.

When wordily things can be managed and certain permissions are gained by owner and authorities, it may become into existence for the welfare of the Sangha in modest and proper mode, without harming beings, done by own effort and keeped Silas at first place.

As walked back up to the Ashram yesterday using the previous forest way, the rest forest was largely already removed and a maschine eager working on clearing the field.

Today Nyom Chanroth made a visit and welcomed Atma back. He shortly reported that the south plantation owner bought the whole rest forest-land between the village, the mountain-foot and his land.Nyom Chanroth also told that he generously and with Saddha would not cut all to it's limits, but dedicating certain land and as well a path up to the Ashram for the Buddhas Sangha.

May all rejoice by the generosity of the faithful land-owner.

Also anothe way upward, from another person and land-owner was offered to make use of it, but my person did not asked details at all but just praised deeds which give fundamental teaching on kamma: that one actually has always certain free choice total ones own goodness able to share.
